Could you please provide the corrected formula and detailed instructions for making a CC body lotion that gives a white, shimmery finish and is easy to spread?
Answer
Here is the corrected formula and detailed instructions for making the CC body lotion that provides a white, shimmery finish and is easy to spread:
Corrected Formula:
- Oil Phase:
- Water-in-Oil EZ: 4%
- LipidSoft Palm: 15%
- Titanium Dioxide 200nm EasyDisperse: 3%
- BB Micro Silk: 3%
- Silk Mica Powder: 15%
- Water Phase:
- Phenoxyethanol SA: 1%
- Water: 60%
Detailed Mixing Instructions:
- Combine all ingredients from the Oil Phase in a container.
- Gently warm the oil phase mixture to no more than 60 degrees Celsius.
- Blend the warmed oil phase until all ingredients are well combined.
- While continuing to blend, slowly add the ingredients from the Water Phase (Water and Phenoxyethanol SA) to the oil phase. Add the water phase little by little (e.g., about 5 grams at a time), blending thoroughly after each addition before adding more. Continue this process until all the water phase is incorporated and the mixture forms a smooth cream.
Additional Notes:
- You can add your desired fragrance to the oil phase before mixing.
- To make the lotion whiter, you can increase the percentage of Titanium Dioxide 200nm EasyDisperse.
- To increase the coverage, you can increase the percentage of Silk Mica Powder.
- Ensure the water content remains at least 60% of the total formula. If you increase other ingredients, you may need to adjust the water percentage accordingly to maintain stability and prevent separation.
